Abstract

The invention relates to a cost-effective rail system which can be driven upon by a board. Since the rail system can be easily assembled and disassembled again, the path can be very easily varied. The rail system is disposed in a sloping manner for this purpose. This can be done by constructing the rail system on a mountain slope, for example. By way of a specially designed board for this purpose, a so-called riding board on which a person can stand, the person can then ride down the slope. The riding board comprises a braking system.

         9 . Rail system as claimed in  claim 4 , characterized in that the inner angle β of the L-shaped sections ( 36 - 39 ) with respect to the sidewalls ( 40 ,  41 ) is less than 90°. 
     
     
         10 . Rail system as claimed in  claim 9 , characterized in that the inner angle β is 60° to 80°. 
     
     
         11 . Riding board ( 12 - 14 ,  64 ,  97 ) comprising at least one frame ( 115 ,  191 ,  192 ), on which a board ( 16 - 20 ,  124 ) is disposed, and on which at least four wheels are disposed forming an inner angle α with the board ( 16 - 20 ,  124 ) of 10°<α<30°. 
     
     
         12 . Riding board ( 12 - 14 ,  64 ,  97 ) as claimed in  claim 11 , characterized in that the frame ( 115 ,  191 ,  192 ) comprises two substantially U-shaped sections ( 119 ,  120 ) which are connected with one another across a connection ( 123 ).
